Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Experts and scientific society guidelines recommend that rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) be used with endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) to optimize lung cancer genotyping, but no comparative trial has been carried out to confirm and quantify its usefulness. METHODS: To assess the influence of ROSE on the yield of EBUS-TBNA for a multigene molecular analysis...
